Introduction
The MT Series transcoders are ideal for bidirectional remote control and
command, security, keyless entry, status monitoring and a host of similar
applications. They allow the status of up to eight buttons or contacts to
be securely transferred via a wireless link. The transcoder's rich feature
set also allows it to meet the needs of far more complex applications. The
Master Development System gives a designer all the tools necessary to
incorporate the transcoder into a product. This guide shows how to take
full advantage of the development boards included with the system. The
Master Development System serves several important functions:
• Rapid Evaluation: The boards allow the performance and features of the
MT Series transcoder to be quickly elevated.
• Design: It shows how to design with the transcoder and how to
interface with other components. It also demonstrates the overall
system function, making it easy to develop the initial system design.
• Prototype Development: It allows for additional circuitry to be placed
directly on the board so that it can act as the first prototype of the
product. All of the signals are available on a wire-wrap header for easy
connection to external circuitry.
This kit includes 2 fully-assembled development boards, 4 MT Series
transcoders* and two CW Series antennas. The boards are also populated
with LT Series RF transceiver modules and the QS Series USB modules.
* One part is soldered to each board, one extra is for use on your first prototype board.
